Abstract
A paging processing method applied to a Machine-Type Communication (MTC) terminal includes: determining a time-delay value of delaying a paging response according to a paging indication sent by a network side, the paging indication being indicative of presence of a paging to the MTC terminal; determining a target time point for performing the paging response according to the time-delay value; and performing the paging response at the target time point.
Claims7
A paging processing method, comprising:
- determining a time-delay value of delaying a paging response according to a paging indication sent by a network side, the paging indication being indicative of presence of a paging to a Machine-Type Communication (MTC) terminal;
- determining a target time point for performing the paging response according to the time-delay value;
- performing the paging response at the target time point;
- and
- sending terminal capability parameters to the network side based on an insensitivity to time delay of the MTC terminal, so as to delay the paging response and reduce a possibility of network congestion
- wherein the performing the paging response comprises:
- sending an access request for accessing the network side;
- receiving a paging message corresponding to the MTC terminal sent by the network side, after the network side allows the MTC terminal to access the network side based on the access request;
- and
- sending a paging response message to the network side according to the paging message;
- wherein when sending the access request for accessing the network side, the method further comprises sending the time delay value to the network side, causing the network side to determine the paging message corresponding to the MTC terminal according to the time-delay value and a terminal identifier of the MTC terminal;
- the method further comprising, upon the MTC terminal determining that there is currently the paging to the MTC terminal according to the paging indication sent by the network side, not immediately initiating the paging response;
- the method further comprising delaying the paging response after receiving the paging indication, thereby reducing a possibility that a large number of MTC terminals initiate paging responses at a same time causing network congestion;
- and
- the method further comprising randomly determining a delay value within a preset time-delay range, to thereby further prevent the network side from receiving a large number of paging responses at a same time.

A paging processing apparatus, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory device configured to store instructions executable by the processor;
- wherein the processor is configured to:

- determine a target time point for performing the paging response according to the time-delay value;
- perform the paging response at the target time point;
- and
- instruct the MTC terminal to send terminal capability parameters to the network side based on an insensitivity to time delay of the MTC terminal, so as to delay the paging response and reduce a possibility of network congestion;
- wherein the processor is configured to perform the paging response by:
- sending an access request for accessing the network side;
- receiving a paging message corresponding to the MTC terminal sent by the network side, after the network side allows the MTC terminal to access the network side based on the access request;
- and
- sending a paging response message to the network side according to the paging message;
- wherein when sending the access request for accessing the network side, the processor is further configured to send the time delay value to the network side, causing the network side to determine the paging message corresponding to the MTC terminal according to the time-delay value and a terminal identifier of the MTC terminal;
